Welcome to eWillys.com, a website for vintage jeep enthusiasts. I update this website nearly every day with jeep deals, jeep history, interesting reader projects, jeep related info, and more.
These quick searches can help you find things on eBay. People list in the wrong categories all the time, so don't be surprised to see brochures in the parts area for example.
The links to posts below show jeeps grouped by models, condition, and other ways. Some of these jeeps are for sale and others have been sold. If you are unsure whether a vehicle is still for sale or not, email me at d [at] ewillys.com for more info.
There are plenty of interesting, unusual, historic and surprising stories related to Jeeps and their owners. In addition, some of these features have nothing to do with jeeps. This link will display all featured stories starting from the latest.
Looking for parts and not sure where to go? There are a variety of large and small new and used parts sellers both online and offline.
Importantly, the allure of buying a project jeep can be romantic. The reality of restoring a jeep can be quite different, expensive and overwhelming without the right tools and resources. So, tread carefully when purchasing a "project". If you have any concerns about buying a vintage jeep, or run across a scam, feel free to contact me for help, comments or concerns .
Some of these clips form this four-plus minute 1943 movie are familiar, but the video also offer a wide range of clips I hadn’t seen (that I can remember). There are Bantams BRC-60s, BRC-40s, Ford GPs, Slat Grill MBs, Ford GPAs, and MBs/GPWs.
Keep moving at 70 miles an hour, oh come on now, you expect anyone to believe that. I had to reply that twice just to be sure I heard it correctly. I guess even back then there was “FAKE NEWS”.
It was possibly narrated by the poor guy hanging on in the rear seat for dear life as it must’ve “felt like it was at 70MPH”… 🙂
Look up. Jeep steel soldier.
How about the soldier at the 00:56 mark who is wearing his earphones on his steel pot? What the heck is he listening to?
The 70 mph is Fake news. Back then it was called propaganda. I’ve seen several of these type of newsreels, mainly overstating the performance of aircraft. Especially those that were in service before the war began.
I thought it kind of humorous that MacArthur had the good sense to ride in the front passenger seat, yet King George and Princess Elizabeth chose to sit in the very uncomfortable back seat.
